    Thread How to prevent pixel slate from starting up when cover is opened

    I recently bought a Pixel Slate. For a while I hated it but actually I'm starting to like it very much. It seems to be very efficient and quick for the basic things that I do. One thing that bugs me is that I have it in a folio keyboard case and whenever the case is opened – which might happen...

    Post Which charges faster USB C or USB 3 .0?

    All very useful information. Thank you. I have a feeling that fast charges can eventually cause damage to a battery or at least reduce its life expectancy. I don't know why but I have the impression that slower charging – if one isn't in a hurry, such as overnight will eventually give longer...

    Post Charging light while tablet is switched off?

    Okay. Forget it. I've just noticed the light bar at the back which turns green when you tap the tablet – even when it is switched off. Very slick

    Thread Charging light while tablet is switched off?

    Hi, I've just bought a Pixel C after years of using a Nexus 10. One thing that I find a bit surprising is that if the tablet is switched off and it is on charge, there is no indication to show that it is charging – not even a white battery symbol for a few seconds or so as with my Nexus 10. Is...

    Thread Which charges faster USB C or USB 3 .0?

    I just bought my first Google pixel tablet with a USB C charging point. Is it faster to charge USB C to USB C? Or is USB 3.0 2 USB C the same speed? Thanks

    Post [Toolkit] Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit v2.1.4 [Updated 01/16/16]: Nexus 6 Thread

    Thank you very much for this incredibly fast response. (Haven't you got anything better to do with your time!!). I had actually tried what you suggested and I was getting a message saying that there was no fast boot. Then, I don't know how I did it but using your utilities, I managed to boot...

    I could with some help please. I expect that the answer is already on the forum somewhere, so if someone could post a link, that would be great. My Nexus - unlocked and rooted - 5.1 with Wugfresh several months ago, today decided not to boot up. I get "Google" then it goes to a black/glowing...

    Post 4.4 -> 5.0 -> 5.01-> 4.4

    Thanks for this. I just want a standard rom - rooted. Improved looks would be nice but if it means sacrificing connectivity then I'll stick with 4.4. I have to say that while I had 5.01 installed, I did get the impression that it was really just about looks. I found the double entry screen -...

    Thread 4.4 -> 5.0 -> 5.01-> 4.4

    Just a word on my own experience regarding the upgrading of my Nexus 10. Actually I have two because one was stolen and then returned to me - but after I replaced it. Both of my tablets with 4.4 installed have been great. They did everything I wanted without any problem. Why did I bother to...

    Ah - I did it by pressing down on the medallion in the middle of the red screen. I can't figure out what the game is about

    Post [Q] Big red k

    Oooh - then somehow I managed to get the red screen to turn to a game of some sort. I'm not sure how I managed it and I can't seem to replicate it at the moment

    Thread [Q] Big red k

    When I tap the greyed out "Android version 4.4.2" a few times, I suddenly get a screen with a very large K and a couple more taps turns the dark background into a red background. Any ideas?
